Feedback 11/12: Groceries and Capo commentary

• Frank, Yorktown: Why hasn't the paper picked up and done an article on the cost of groceries? The cost of groceries has gone up drastically over the last year's prices, even at Wal-Mart.

Editor: I went to the topic expert for your question and asked Savvy Shopper Nicole Paitsel what she thought. Every week she compares grocery store prices and publishes them in print and online. Her response: Yes, that's a great idea. I am planning a grocery comparison project in the new year. To find additional deals, keep reading the Daily Press or go to savvyshoppertoday.com.

Capo commentary

• Mitch: Cudos to the paper on publishing Carol Capo's "What if We Lived What We Believe?" This is the most thought-provoking piece I've read in the paper in some time.

William and Mary

• When did the front page become a sports page? You put W&M football team on the front page?

Editor: The front page is for major events. When a local college's football team gets ranked number one, we believe that is news. Many other readers who felt the same. We know because the numbers show this story was the top story online after the announcement.

Garnishee

• Joan, Newport News: Re: page 4 of the Tuesday paper. The informative article on Whitehead is a good article. In the article however you use the word garnish twice to describe his wages, but there's no such word for that use, it's garnishee. Garnish only has to do with food.

Editor: Thank you for pointing that out. We apologize for the mistake.
